Netflix September 2026: Everything New Coming to Netflix This Month
September 2026 is bringing a packed lineup of movies and TV shows to Netflix. From crime dramas and true-crime stories to classic horror franchises, animated titles and new international releases, there is plenty to explore throughout the month.
Some of the biggest additions include The Gentlemen Season 2, Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story, the original Alien and Jaws movies, several Resident Evil films, and a number of new Netflix originals.
Here is a closer look at the biggest titles arriving on Netflix in September 2026, followed by the complete release schedule.
The Biggest Netflix Originals Coming in September 2026
The Gentlemen Season 2 – September 3
Guy Ritchie's stylish crime drama The Gentlemen returns for its second season on September 3.
The new season follows Eddie Horniman, who has now become far more comfortable with his criminal empire. Instead of simply trying to survive the dangerous world he entered in Season 1, Eddie is now looking to expand his operation.
With Susie Glass by his side, Eddie's ambitions move beyond the family estate and toward Europe. However, his complicated connection with crime boss Bobby Glass could create serious problems.
The returning cast includes Theo James, Kaya Scodelario, Ray Winstone, Vinnie Jones, Giancarlo Esposito, Daniel Ings and Joely Richardson. Hugh Bonneville, Benedetta Porcaroli and Benjamin Clementine are among the newcomers.
Netflix has already renewed The Gentlemen for a third season.
Why Watch It?
If you enjoy stylish crime stories mixed with comedy, drama and unexpected characters, The Gentlemen is one of Netflix's standout series. The combination of Guy Ritchie's signature storytelling and a strong ensemble cast makes Season 2 one of September's most anticipated releases.
Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story – September 17
The fourth installment of Netflix's Monster anthology series turns its attention to one of America's most famous historical murder cases.
Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story stars Ella Beatty as Lizzie Borden, who was accused of killing her father and stepmother with an axe in 1892. Although she was ultimately acquitted, the case became one of the most discussed murder mysteries in American history.
The series explores Lizzie's difficult family life, her relationship with the household maid Maggie and the events surrounding the infamous case.
The cast also features Charlie Hunnam, Rebecca Hall, Billie Lourd and Sarah Paulson.
Why Watch It?
Fans of true crime, psychological dramas and Ryan Murphy's darker storytelling may find this series particularly interesting. The new season also takes the Monster anthology in a different direction by focusing on a female figure for the first time.
Classic Movie Franchises Coming to Netflix
September isn't only about new Netflix originals. The streaming platform is also adding several major classic movie franchises.
Alien Movies – September 1
Netflix is adding two of the most iconic science-fiction films ever made:
- Alien
- Aliens
Ridley Scott's 1979 Alien follows the crew of the Nostromo as they encounter a terrifying extraterrestrial creature in deep space.
James Cameron's 1986 sequel, Aliens, takes the story in a more action-driven direction as Ellen Ripley returns to confront the deadly creatures once again.
Why Watch Them?
Both movies remain essential viewing for science-fiction and horror fans. The first film is known for its atmospheric horror, while Aliens combines suspense with large-scale action.
Jaws Collection – September 1
Netflix is also bringing all four original Jaws movies to the platform:
- Jaws
- Jaws 2
- Jaws 3
- Jaws: The Revenge
Steven Spielberg's 1975 original remains the most celebrated movie in the franchise. It follows police chief Martin Brody as he tries to protect Amity Island from a deadly great white shark.
The later films continue the story in different directions, although they received a much more mixed response from critics.
Why Watch It?
The original Jaws is a classic that helped establish the modern summer blockbuster. For fans of older Hollywood movies, its arrival on Netflix is one of September's biggest highlights.
Resident Evil Movies – September 1 and 2
Netflix is putting together a Resident Evil lineup across two days.
On September 1, the platform adds:
- Resident Evil: Extinction
- Resident Evil: Afterlife
- Resident Evil: Retribution
On September 2, Netflix adds the animated titles:
- Resident Evil: Damnation
- Resident Evil: Vendetta
- Resident Evil: Death Island
The animated movies feature several familiar characters from the Resident Evil game universe, including Leon S. Kennedy, Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Claire Redfield and Rebecca Chambers.
Why Watch It?
For horror and zombie fans, September offers an opportunity to revisit several different parts of the Resident Evil universe. The timing is also notable because a new Resident Evil movie is scheduled to reach theatres during the same month.
